[QUOTE="lovedr79, post: 365353, member: 5106"] very simple test. put one lead on one end, put the other on the other end, if it beeps you have found wire one. if it does not beep move one lead to the other wire it should beep. the beep means that it is completing the "loop" giving continuity through the wire. you can get a cheap multimeter with continuity for $10 at radio shack. no its not a fluke meter but my radio shack one has been working great for 10 years. I bought it because I thought I was only going to use it once. I use that thing all the time now. [/QUOTE]
